Clone Manager Professional 9 Update

September 2016 --- Update 9.x to 9.51

If you are using Clone Manager Professional version 9, you can download a
software patch that will update your program to the latest version (ver 9.51).
You can also download the latest version of the program's
compiled HTML Help.

Update Description

This update makes the changes necessary to access the NCBI web site
and identify sequence data so that you can continue to use the Entrez
(E-utils), Browse Entrez and Search, and BLAST internet search functions.
(NCBI is changing the URL used to reach the web site (going to a more
secure https link) and is phasing out the use of sequence GIs as
sequence identifiers.)

This update also includes some fundamental changes recently made to the program to
support the newest operating systems and touch-screen devices. These
changes most noticeably affect the File, Open and File, Save dialog
boxes, and the application Help system. This update also includes changes to
the Clone Manager list of
feature keys supported in GenBank/EMBL file formats to include new
feature keys (like Regulatory), and mandatory qualifiers are now
supported.

Installing this update will also set or update the browser emulation mode for
the embedded Clone Manager web browser control,
and automatically update the Entrez URL (if not already changed).

This update also includes all corrections and additions made in prior
version 9 incremental updates, including a new sequence phrase collections
module, new Assembly Cloning module, a new Gateway Cloning Wizard, a new
Topoisomerase Cloning Wizard and a new Retrieve from Entrez (E-utils)
function.

Concurrent User License holders -- this update also includes a network
administrator's toolkit. These administrator tools will help you to
install and configure the software, turn on token logging, monitor tokens in
use, and trouble-shoot problems you may encounter running the network
edition of Clone Manager.

Concurrent User (Network Version) Update Instructions

For Concurrent User (Network) Licenses, the Network Administrator should download
and install the update. Click below to begin the download.

The update must be performed at the computer that is the license server
and under the account used to install the software. (The computer that is the
license server will have the file C:\ProgramFiles\SciEdLicense\SciEdLicense.exe.)

First, make sure Clone Manager
Professional is not in use. Then double-click on the downloaded file nCMPU951.exe to start the update process. The incremental update program will check your computer system,
looking for an eligible program copy to update. If it finds a copy of Clone

Help System Update

You can download the compiled HTML Help file for Clone Manager Professional 9 to replace an earlier version
of this file. Users running the
network version of the program can use this file to provide local help access,
eliminating the need to try to load a compiled help file across network security
barriers.

Click below to begin the download to your computer. When prompted, select
Save to write a copy of the file to your hard disk.

After download, move the downloaded file CMSuite9.chm to your Clone Manager
home directory. (The default home directory is CMHome, located in the My
Documents folder. To check your home
directory location: in Clone Manager, click File, Preferences and then look on the Basic
tab in the Location field. Users running the network version should have
assigned a home directory on their local machine.) When a new help file is placed in your home directory, Clone Manager will use
this file in preference to the help file originally installed.

You may need to unblock this help file before use. In File Explorer,
right-click on the help file CMSuite9.chm and select Properties from the
menu. Click the Unblock button (lower right) on the General page and then
click Apply. If you do not see the Unblock button, you may need to log on as
administrator.
